To have a voice is most important. Never stop using it. Tracy Thresher has been using typing to communicate since 1990. Before that he could not tell people what he liked and didn’t like. Not being able to express himself was like being in a world of silence. Tracy’s message to all is that it takes us time to process and move which has nothing to do with intelligence. Intelligence is there and you need to believe.

Please check out Wretches and Jabberers, an excellent film featuring Tracy Thresher. It is about his travels around the world, speaking up to change attitudes about the intelligence and abilities of people on the autism spectrum
